NAVIGATION of the Upper Missouri.

WASHINGTON, August 9.-[Special to the
Miner. Capt. Clinton B. Sears, United
Stats Corps of Engines. who last Sep
tember succeeded Capt. Quinn in charge OF
the improvement OF the Upper Missouri
and Yellowstone, says: Il see no use IN
pending any great amount in improving
the Upper Missouri. There is another
view of the matter, however, that may
Commend itself as
AN AFFAIR OF WISE POLICY.
Is long as there is, during the season OF
navigation,a good permanent channel from
the Mississippi Valley into the heart o
Montana. so long will the public be bene'
fitted by lower freight rates on competing
railroads.. The channel may never be used
but it's existence. ready for use, will act
powerfully on extortionate freight rates.

Magnificent Audience and a
Lovely PerfOrmance..A Am Oval ton
to Gen. Lee at the Grand .- Hiss
Mitchell FavOrite with the To-
bOgganers.
Little Barefoot never tripped before the
footlights to more brilliant audience than
she did at the Grand last night. Every seat
of the capaclous building was occupied and
hundreds of disappointed people were turned
away from the doors unable to gain admis-
sion. Bright and winsome Maggie Mitchell
was in her blithest mood. 1t was evident
that the little actress was inspired by the
scene before her. 1t seemed that never be-
fore had there been such ringing quality in
her gay and bithesome laugh, such an injection
about her light and airy footstep. Her spirit
was as efferYescent as the sparkle of the
morning dewdrop. The representation of
Little Barefoot last night was marked by
turns with delicious humor bubbling merri
ment and tender pathoS. The company was
up to the fullest standard of excellence and
the performance is one that will long be re-
membered in St. Paul.
When Gen. Lee entered the opera house
last night and was recogniZe1 by the audience
he was given spontaneous ovation that must
have been cheering to his manly heart. The
like Of it has never before been seen in a
place of public amusement in this city.
The Northern Pacific Toboggan club made
fine showing at the Grand last evening.
Their handsome uniform was pretty central
setting to the gas scene which the magnificent
audience presented.
Mr.. Abbott makes an ideal lover He is
handsome and shapely and has warm tone

Miss Andrews is so handsome and artistic
it seems out of place to have her play char

too am'able looking for an unamable part.

of the ice palace. The Windsor and Seven

evening.
Maggie Mitchell wears the decorations of
half a dozen toboggan clubs, having been

STATE HE ALTH.
Pertinent Reference to Ice and
Kerosene.

The eleventh report of the state board of
health of Minnesota is in the hands of the
printers, and will be issued from the office of
the secretary, DR.. Charles N. Hewitt. Red
Wing. The report has the following:
ICE AND ICE WATERS.
FREQUENT inquiries are made and samples
submitted as to the purity of ice water. aud
quite a number of such analyses have been
made this winter by the secretary. For ST.
Paul and Minneapolis the analyses show
that good ice should be obtained above Min
neapolIs from the Mississippi river. Between
Minneapolis and St. Paul ali samples eX-
arnined were unfit for domestic use. They
were carefully selected as fair samples of the
product, but failed to meet very low
standard. There is no doubt whatever, that
the adjacent larger lakes should be used
for the ice supply of these Cities and the
river ice not at all for domestic use, except
as above. At Red Wing the ice Of the river
is fair, if clear, and taken above the water
intake pipe. That opposite the city is not so
good. Several samples from small, shallow
lakes and millpondS have not proven as good
as the Mississippi above Minneapolis. or at
Red Wing. The basis facts of these analyses
are very simple. No stream into which
sewage, garbage or refuse of rendering
establishments is constantly poured, can
furnish water or ice fit for human con-
sumption. except many miles intervene
between the fouling and the use. The ice at
Red Wing, though fair, chemically, is justly
open TO doubt, for above reasons, One
caution rs to ice-take it over the deepest
part of the river, pond or lake, and require
that il be bright, clear. and free from visible
impurities.
KEROSENE.
This subject is treated in the report as
follows:
The present standard for kerosene, 100
Farenheit, flashing point, was opposed by
this board ut the time of its adoption. 1t is
too low In 1854 the complaints against the
Ike osene sold n the state were so numerous
that the governor instructed the Secretar of
this board TO make an investigation He did
so, and the result was published in our tenth
report Tor the last legislature. The effect
was marked on the supply thereafter. We
feel bound TO assure the legislature that it is
only bv such careful investigation. and crit
icism that the kerosene supply can be kept
at q reasonable standard. There seems to be
much misunderstood as 10 the causes of
ehe trouble and danger in the use of kero-
sene The troubles complained of have been,
first. sediment in the oil in cold weather.whlch,
it is thought. obstructs the wick; second,
feeble fame smoke and offensive odors even
after careful trimming; third, occasional eX-
posion OF lamp, and, therefore, constant
dread of its occurrence.
